The Original Art Auctions are officially closed-thanks to everyone who stopped by to see them. ^^ Both Dawn and Brian and Hunter and Cat found new homes through them.

I also want to apologize to anyone who got locked out of the auction when I posted the 24 hour notice. Apparently, after you sign up with Furbuy you can't bid on auctions with only 24 hours left for seven days. (This is why Ellen needs to read the 'Terms and Conditions' paragraphs when she signs up for sites. ^^; )

I've already gotten noted by someone who couldn't bid, asking if they could purchase a piece that hadn't been bid on. I was fine with it-and now Happy Peanut Butter Cat and Jane and John have new homes, as well. If there's anyone who'd like to purchase Louis and Diana for $15 via paypal, send me a note!

Overall, it was a good experience-again, thanks to everyone who stopped by to see the auctions. I'd like to try it again sometime~

For those interested, there's less than 24 hours left of the original FE artwork auctions. Anyone wanting to make last-minute bids can find them at this link: http://www.furbuy.com/seller/Ellen_Natalie.html

Interested in owning some original FE art? Possible auction sites were discussed earlier this week, and now five pieces featuring Cat, Dawn, and other characters from the comic are now up for auction at Furbuy: http://www.furbuy.com/seller/Ellen_Natalie.html

Pieces featured include all four of the Couples Series so far, along with a sample image of Cat used to test the lamination machine.~

School bills were a bit more than expected this semester, and I'd like to auction some original FE art to make up the difference. I'm researching different bidding sites,, but have little idea which ones are most popular or have unexpected twists to their operations. What are your preferences when it comes to bidding online? Did you have a great auctioning experience or horror story from a particular site? Any general advice you'd like to offer? Share it here-all feedback is welcome!

I believe I've worked out the kinks that went wrong in the last stream, but to make sure, I'm doing a test stream today. If I can make it through a few pieces without the black screen of death appearing, I'll officially re-schedule the favorite character poll stream that was interrupted. Feel free to stop by and give feedback to sound, picture, etc: http://www.livestream.com/ellennatalie

Please be courteous when speaking in the chat box, no profanity or spamming, and keep role-playing to a minimum.~

Read a few of these, and decided to try one for myself: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/o38hu/iama_creator_of_a_furry_webcomic_taking_place_in/

Filler Page 25 is up, featuring the winners of the Original Character Fashion Contest from last month.
Rous's outfit was submitted by Kame-Kami, Nova's by Tesseri-Shira, and Latrans by himself, Latrans Thatcher

After some reformatting and trial purchases via my husband's Paypal account and debit card, I believe all issues involving the buy button and being redirected after purchase have been resolved. The Side Stories page is back up on the site-and of course, if anyone has further problems, let me know.
